 been created. Many believe that
prison
 is the best

 for criminal while others are against

 people as same as others.
That is
 to say, some people don’t want to change their lifestyle even if, they have to do community services or they have to endure horrible situations. In
this
 case the

 as a means of

 is always enough. They think that
prison
 is able to rehabilitate murderers too. They don’t consider that these offenders might repeat taking another life. All things considered,
